Officially: Ali Al-Bulayhi joins Al-Shabab on a free transfer

Al-Shabab have announced the signing of international defender Ali Al-Bulayhi, making him a player for the team in the new season, in a free transfer following the end of his association with Al-Hilal.

Al-Shabab have reached an agreement with the player after coming to terms on all financial and contractual clauses, paving the way for his joining the first team during the current summer transfer window.

Ali Al-Bulayhi has joined Al-Shabab shortly after Al-Hilal ended their contractual relationship with the defender, after the player received a financial settlement from the blue club.

The decision for Ali Al-Bulayhi's departure was linked to the vision of the coaching staff led by Simone Inzaghi, who decided not to keep the defender in Al-Hilal's squad for the new season.

Al-Shabab have taken advantage of the player's departure from Al-Hilal, moving swiftly to finalize the deal, aiming to benefit from his international experience and abilities to strengthen the team's defensive line.

Ali Al-Bulayhi's addition represents a defensive boost for Al-Shabab as the club aims to build a stronger and more stable team and prepare better for upcoming challenges.

Al-Shabab fans are eagerly awaiting the international defender's first appearance in the team's shirt, after his transfer became official following the agreement on contract details and the completion of the transaction procedures.
